Arla Foods is a Danish multinational and the biggest European dairy cooperative. It is the seventh largest dairy company in the world when looking at turnover and the fourth largest in milk volume. The dairy producer has production locations in sixty countries which together produce 6.8 billion kilos of dairy products per year. In order to further improve asset performance through Arla staff, MaxGrip developed a tailor-made Master Class Maintenance and Asset Management with and for Arla. We subsequently trained and coached Arla across multiple countries on the actual usage in real-life situations.
Case study – highlights
Approach
MaxGrip developed a fully remote (COVID-19) Master Class program that includes training, practical on-the-job assignments and coaching. All sessions are delivered by experienced MaxGrip consultants and attended by Arla teams which consist of maintenance managers and team leads of a wide variety of sites.
Results
The participants were able to improve their technical capabilities. In addition, the Master Class Asset Management realized a more robust internal collaboration between departments and roles. The participants of the Arla Master Class Maintenance and Asset Management appreciate the combination of online training sessions with theoretical and practical elements while receiving coaching on the job. They feel more confident to promote maintenance and asset management as a business performance driver within the organization.
Get inspired
In 2030, asset management will be reshaped by AI, emphasizing predictive maintenance. This evolution signifies a commitment to digital innovation and environmental consciousness, adapting to global technological trends for improved efficiency and sustainability.
More and more, we see companies acknowledge the crucial role that people play in getting successes by implementing Industry 4.0 solutions.
On December 19 of 2022, it is exactly 25 years ago that MaxGrip was officially founded. We asked Jakob Boelens, one of our founders and senior partners of the company, to share his top five of 25 years in business.
